I am not saying they were not colonial, re-packaged laws, that they were new 
laws.

But I am saying they need to be continuously repackaged or even better 
completely discarded as in this example, as D Y Chandrachud is contemplating 
and as Faye D’Souza is postulating.

India’s jurisprudence is fashioned on Common Law like Britain. Britain too has 
some archaic laws on its books, but not important ones like those concerning 
adultery.
